Im going to repaint them both to the vintage poloron org colors and make the torso the chimney santa The reason I said Empire for the torso and not Holliday Innovations is because of the latern.. The Empire, the ring around the bottom of the lantern was left white and the H.I was painted red. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Christmasparma 1 Posted December 21, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2013 Im abiut to strip the paint on my santa.. What stripper did u use? Did it take a long time? Did u strip it down to all pure white? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
55cgas 29 Posted December 21, 2013 Report Share Posted December 21, 2013 I used citristrip, I got it from home depot. Let it sit on for a good 15 min before you hose it off. Spray it on, let it sit, use a tire cleaning brush and brush the stripper, spray a little more stripper, hose it off while brushing with the brush. All the paint should come off the first shot. Yes, you want it pure white, any paint left over you will see when the lights are on through your new paint. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
